Masters Program in Power Converter Design and Analysis - Electrical

As we all know, the law of conservation of energie states that energy cannot be destroyed nor created, but can change its form. This law can be seen in many real-life examples, including vehicles and dams. When we talk about energy usage, however, Power is another term. People believe that power and energy can be interchangeably. This is a common misconception. While energy is the amount of work performed, power refers to the speed at which the work is completed. Power is simply energy per unit of time. Power can be converted to other forms just like energy. The process by which electrical energy can be converted from one form into another is called power conversion. This device is called a power convertor.

A power converter is an electro-mechanical or electrical device. It can be simple or complex. A power converter can change the frequency and voltage of current or both. A power converter's main function is to convert electrical energy into a form that is best suited to the loads of the user.

In the beginning, electricity was converted using electromechanical converters. These converters were essentially rotating devices, and therefore were less efficient. Static power converters are now used in many fields thanks to the advancement of technology like power semiconductors. Static power converters are lighter and smaller than rotating power converters and provide better dynamic and static performance.

A static power converter that controls power flow with 100% efficiency is ideal. This is impossible. There are many factors that can affect the efficiency of power converters and the entire system. Engineers strive to create power converters that are as efficient as possible. Skill-Lync provides insight and guidance for the design and development of modern converters that have advanced controls.
